Group SEVENTEEN will hold encore performances at mega stadiums in Korea and Japan.

On January 29, PLEDIS Entertainment announced, "SEVENTEEN will hold an encore tour, 'SEVENTEEN TOUR 'FOLLOW' AGAIN,' at three stadiums in Korea and Japan."

The encore tour will take place at Incheon Asiad Main Stadium on March 30-31, Osaka Yanmar Stadium Nagai on May 18-19, and Kanagawa Nissan Stadium on May 25-26.

In 2023 alone, SEVENTEEN sold more than 16 million albums and swept major award shows in Korea and abroad. They will be the first K-pop group to hold a solo performance at the main stadium of the Incheon Asiad.

The Kanagawa Nissan Stadium is the largest venue in Japan with a capacity of approximately 70,000 people and is often referred to as a "dream stage" for artists. Until now, the only K-pop boy group to have ever performed there was TVXQ!. Following in their footsteps, SEVENTEEN, who have become the "top K-pop group," will prove their unrivaled status and popularity by filling the Nissan Stadium for two consecutive nights.

SEVENTEEN met more than 700,000 fans with 20 concerts in nine cities, including Seoul, Tokyo, Saitama, Nagoya, Osaka, Fukuoka, Bangkok, Bulacan, and Macau, during their "FOLLOW" tour, which was held for about six months from July last year. In particular, the Japanese concerts in Tokyo, Saitama, Nagoya, Osaka, and Fukuoka were the largest five-dome tour since SEVENTEEN's debut. The concerts in Bangkok, Bulacan, and Macau were stadium tours, demonstrating SEVENTEEN's strong ticketing power.

Beyond one-off performances, BTS and SEVENTEEN are the only other K-pop artists to have stadium tours in Asia.

"This is an encore tour that we prepared with gratitude for the CARAT (fandom name) fans who love SEVENTEEN, so you can expect the best stage," said PLEDIS Entertainment, adding, "The entire stadium venue will be dyed in rose quartz serenity, the official color of SEVENTEEN."
